Your virtue raises your glory above your crime.
He should be envied Who when his strength is spent lays down his life. Old age reserves a melancholy fate For noble souls before their life is done.
How much must I overcome before I triumph?
It is a law, of the gods which is never broken, to sell somewhat dearly the great benefits which they confer on us.
They who overcome their desires once can overcome them always.
Every man of courage is a man of his word.
